Senate Bill 326 will become effective in 2025 and affects condominium associations by requiring them to conduct visual inspections of load-bearing components six feet above ground and that are supported substantially by wood (balconies). Although requirements of this bill won't begin for five years, this will give Associations ample time to be proactive and avoid special assessments. We suggest meeting with your reserve study specialists now to determine an appropriate amount to set aside. Please make sure to read this very important information from Davis-Stirling by clicking on the link below, then scrolling down to "Structural Integrity Inspections".
